The only problem with the timber on an RP door is the amount of wood that there is to screw into. Taking advice from our resident timber expert I drilled the existing holes to 6mm (being careful not to go too deep because the window channels are quite close for the top two hinges) and then glued in place a short length of 6mm dowel using wood glue.
